Since the start of the year, we've been going to church at 9 a.m., which means that we have the entire afternoon and evening to spend as a family. We've started a new tradition of making caramel popcorn every Sunday afternoon and enjoying either a football game or a movie. It has been a great way to build family ties and to laugh together. Everyone gets involved in helping make the popcorn and the recipe is easy. Here is the link if you want to make some yourself... www.ourbestbites.com/2008/09/caramel-corn.html
I discovered this blog a few months back and have made a number of the recipes and found that I enjoy cooking more than I ever have and I'm better than I ever thought! I make a mean Creamy Tomato Basil Soup and breadsticks! Yeah me!
Then our duties as the stand in parents for the three extra boys ended about 6 tonight. I have to say it really was a good weekend, although tiring at times. The boys each have a friend in our boys and so they pair off and entertain themselves. All eight of us enjoyed the caramel popcorn today as we watched MJ's This Is it. What a wonderful way to end a Sabbath day! I wish the weekend were longer, but I'm feeling rested and relaxed and ready for February...bring it on...!
